BRYANT LEADS CLASS
Affair is Annual Tradition of College of Commerce; Will Serve Refreshments.
Newly Elected Sophomore Prexy and Cohorts Establish Their Authority Over New Men.
By valiaDtly winning the tie-up and the tug-of-war and achieving a tie in the sack race, the sophomores, led by their new president, Dave Bryant justified their claims to superiority over the frosh by emerging victorious from the annual soph-frosh brawl held yesterday afternoon on Bovard field.
The first event scheduled for the fray was the tug-of-war, but the enthusiasm of the first heave proved too much for the rope, and it parted, spilling the contestants over the green. The tug was then postponed until the last, while repairs were affected on the rope. When the men again lined up. the sophs, after almost losing, dragged the weakening first year men over the line to win.
ln the first event to actually take place, the tie-up. twenty-five men were entered from each class. The battle was waged fiercely for a few I minutes with neither side gaining the [advantage, but the superior team Iwork and experience of the sopho-Imores soon began to tell and one freshman after another left the field fn a condition closely resembling that #f a trussed fowl.

Plans have been completed for tonight’s Commerce Smoker, which is to be held between 7:30 and 10:00 P. M. at the Delta Sigma Pi House, 2653 Ellendale Place. This opening smoker has become an annual tradition in the College of Commerce, and serves as an opportunity for the new Commerce men to become acquainted with the sophomores and upper classmen, as well as the professors and instructors in Commerce.
Dean Wallace M. Cunningham of the College of Commerce has agreed to be present to extend to the incoming freshmen their first official
and faculty of the College. Music,' entertainment, eats, drinks, and smokes will be provided as means to create an informal and enjoyable atmosphere.
Those in charge are particularly anxious that the upper classmen come out for this affair, as they feel it is only through their support and attendance that the smoker can adequately serve as a true and cordial welcome for the new students.
Arrangements for the smoker are being handled by Gordon Crain, social chairman of the Commerce Club, and Don Edwin, president of Commerce. This get-together is the first of a series of social and student body functions which have been arranged for Commerce students as part of an extensive campaign to foster a professional student body spirit in the College of Commerce.

S. C. WOMAN’S CLUB SPONSORS CONCERT
Sponsored by the Woman’s Club of the University of Southern California. the first concert of the school year will be given by Miss Gladys Grace Hill, soprano, of New York City, in Bovard Auditorium, next Friday evening.
In conjunction with Miss Hill, Charles Wakefield Cadman. American composer-pianist will present a group of his own compositions, and will also accompany Miss Hill in a group of Cadman songs. Cadman Is perhaps best known as the composer of “Shanewis.” Miss Helen Beatrice Fromer,, composer-pianist, also of New York City, is to accompany Miss Hill in the other groups of the program.
An alumna of Southern California, Miss Hill has spent the last three years studying voice ln Italy, France, and New York City under Lucentl, De Resrke. I a Forge, Althouse. and other prominent masters. Besides doing a considerable amount of concert work. Miss Hill is soloist for the Grace Methodist Episcopal Church of New York City.
Moreover, we are to have sixteen pages full of real football dope.”
The cover design, which has been done by professional artists, will be the same for all issues of the magazine, although a different picture will appear on the cover for each fame. The Stanford and Notre Dame issues are to be especially pretentious with thirty-two pages and a five color pro* cess cover.
Each issue, as in previous years, will contain the line-up for the game, together with the players’ names, numbers, and positions. Pictures of the various players will be included in each edition of the book.
But the crowning glory of this season’s Pigskin Review will be in the articles written by the greatest and best known sports writers in the West. Each week different writers will present articles. Among the writers already engaged are Maxwell Stiles and Mark Kelly of the Examiner, Braven Dyer of the Times, and other writers of renown. Many noted critics have not been approached because of their absence from duties to attend the fight in Philadelphia.
Another important feature will be the articles by the student writers of the various college papers. These articles will deal with the team of the school the writer represents and should be interesting as the author undoubtedly knows his aggregation better than a foreign writer.
Ralph Huston, associate sport editor of the Trojan, will present a series of “Introductions.” These are to be short but complete histories of each player, his qualifications, and all matters interesting to the indiv-ual fan. “These writers are the best obtainable and their works should be read by every football loving fan,” was the opinion of Carle.
The art work, with the exception of the cover, will be done by Francis Serowinsky.
The Pigskin Review will be sold by U. S. C. students at every game beginning Saturday. There has been no change In price.

If there is any one thing we desire above all else In this column it is to be conservative in our criticisms at all times. Nevertheless we were frankly surprised at the showing made by the sophomores on Bovard field yesterday afternoon, after the sparse showing made in the class meeting at noon. We were not there, but if our information was correct, the turnout was not what it should have been. For some reason class spirit has never been too strong at Southern California, but the class of ’26 proved what it can amount to and we keep hoping that every ensuing sophomore class will live up to that record.
’26 has left the campus now and we don’t write this for the handshakes of anyone but for the benefit of the present underclassmen who cannot remember them and their activities, we will say that they set a mark in campus activity that has not been equalled since they were sophomores. We congratulate Dave Bryant upon his election and hope that he will prove the man who can bring the present sophomores around to their feet and make the clasB amount to something. Some of your representatives made a good showing yesterday afternoon, sophomores. We are watching the rest of you to see if you will follow it up.
ARCHITECT LIBRARY IS WELL EQUIPPED
The Library of the School of Architecture of the University of Southern California contains over 600 books on architecture, 800 bound volumes of magazines, 1800 mounted photographs and 3,000 lantern slides, with attention given to the monuments and structures of the countries whose geographical and climatic conditions are similar to those of California. The school also has access to the library of the Allied Architects’ Association of Los Angeles, consisting of over 1,000 volumes of carefully selected material.
We have a word from Red Dale3, president of the Trojan Knights, regarding the attitude that some of the other classmen are taking toward the freshmen. A few years ago hazing was abolished as an institution at this University. Later the Trojan Knights and Squires organizations were started as an answer to the problem of enforcement of campus traditions. The administration has been generous in allowing these groups to function. But it is not the intention of Dales or any of his men that punishment by his groups should degenerate into wide open hazing of freshmen. From now on it is understood that the “button” punishment and others is to be meted out BY THE TROJAN KNIGHTS OR SQUIRES for particular offenses and not by sophomores who desire entertainment. We make this by way of explanation rather than criticism and hope that it will be followed as such.
WOMEN S CLUB
Due to a conflict with the regular monthly meeting of the Women’s Club, the first meeting of the Y. W.
C. A. scheduled for the Women's Residence Hall tomorrow at 4:15, will be held at the same hour In Parlor B of the President’s Suite.
Today we call attention to the beginning of a new page in Dally Trojan history. It has long been our desire to give the Trojan student body a real feature page that would take second place to none on the coast. Lack of finances, largely, and other difficulties has stood in the way until this year. But now we are making the attempt. Miss Baker brings to the page a background of wide newspaper experience, three years on the Trojan and a greaf deal of work outside and we are looking for big things from our “pet,” the new Trojan feature page, designed to give expression to all those campus interests that cannot be handled in the regular news columns.
A special soph meeting was held yesterday at 12:00 In Bovard Auditorium. The purpose of the meeting was to elect a new president to replace Herb Spencer, president-elect, who was forced to resign the office because of having transferred to Dental, and Dave Bryant, prominent man in the class, was elected to succeed him. /
The other man nominated for the office was Jesse Hibbs, a prominent man in the sophomore class, and also one of the star members of last year’s frosh grid squad. He is a candidate for this year’s varsity.
The attendance at the meeting was very small and there was some question as to the legality of holding the elections. Hank Rohr, of the elections committee, was presiding, and ruled that it would be all right to continue the elections.
The ballots were passed and Dave Bryant was elected with a small majority over Hibbs. Bryant stated he would call a special meeting in a few days to organize the class, and would name committees for the coming year.
The meeting was hurriedly called In order to provide a leader for the tussle with the freshmen yesterday afternoon.

COMMERCE WOMEN ANNOUNCE MEETING
Jessie Grant Plans First Social Event of the Year as Official Welcome
Co-operating with the men in the College of Commerce, the Commerce women’s group, under the leadership of Jessica Grant, chairman of the group, will hold their first social meeting of the year tonight at 7:30 at the Theta Omicron house, 2637 Portland.
Miss Grant, who is vice-president of the College of Commerce, announces that at this meeting plans for the women’s activities during the coming year will be outlined and discussed. The affair will serve as an official welcome to the incoming women in the College of Commerce, for the purpose of developing a professional spirit among the women.
The committee in charge of the affair has arranged what they describe as a particularly attractive program, among the special features of which will be brief talks by prom inent women ln Commerce.
Guests of honor will include Dean Mary Sinclair Crawford, Miss Edith M. Weir of the University Employment Bureau, and Dr. F. May Morse, a new member of the Commerce faculty.
Eddie Woods, former campus actor of prominence, who is now playing opposite Pauline Fredericks in “Madame X,” apparently has “arrived” as a stage star. Woods has been retained by the Pauline Fredericks company to play leads in two forthcoming productions, which, like “Madame X,” will tour the United States, and enjoy extended runs in London.
“Madame X,” a3 soon as It has concluded its local run, will leave for a two day stop in San Diego. Following this the production will tour the northern section of the Pacific Coast, playing In Portland, Seattle and Vancouver. A four weeks’ engagement has been booked for Chicago, and another of two weeks’ duration in Miami, Florida. From there the company goes to New Orleans, and then to New York for six or eight weeks. It is planned to leave in December for London, and an indefinite engagement.
Following the English stay, the company will return to San Francisco and will open In “The Lady,” a play similar in type to “Madam X,” in which Woods will again play the son of Miss Fredericks. The same tour will be conducted with “The Lady,” and at its conclusion a third play, written by Willard Mack, former husband of Miss Fredericks, will be prensented.
Woods is will known on the campus. He was a student of the School of Speech and was prominent in U. S. C. dramatics.

Yesterday we gave the names of persons who have contributed so much to these early editions of the paper. One name we missed, in our hurry, that of Bill Jeffery. Bill was one of the first on the staff and one of the returning members who pitched in an< worked as a cub reporter or anything we wanted him to be while we were getting the paper started.

All pre-medics men and women are to hold a meeting at the “Y” Hut Thursday at 12:30 p. m. to form plans for a pre-medic year, according to Bob Green, president of the pre-medic society.
Green said that all members must be present to find out how the organization, which was formed last year, would continue its work.
In its social functions, the society has proved to be of much help to the participants. Programs, where several doctors and surgeons of prominence have attended, have been presented. It has been assured by the president that such men will again be secured to address on subjects of interest to pre-emids this year.

Eddie Woods, Campus Actor of li*lon ranks among the best in the Note, Now Playing Opposite country, many of the professors being outstanding in their specific fields.
According to the new plans, the School of Divinity is no longer contained as a separate unit, but the departments of the School of Religion, and the work required for both graduate and under-graduate degrees in Divinity is incorporated In the revised schedule. New courses have been added, while others are now being contemplated by those in charge of the department. Perhaps the outstanding addition comes in the number of professors employed.
The School of Religion was one of the oldest and best known departments in the institution 3iace it had its founding in 1876. Various changes were made during the years that followed, and in 188-5 the College of Theology was organized. In 1921 Dr. John F. Fisher was elected Dean of the College. Since that time Dean Fisher has been carrying out the duties as the head of the School of Religion.
Under the general plan of the department, the work is divided up into five separate units. These units cover In various ways the subjects which deal with Christian Ministry, Religious Education, Missions and Social Service, Directors of Vocational Schools, and Religious Writings. While /hese branches cover the field as a whole, other important and interesting courses are offered.
Whatever the effect of the change is, the administration feels that a new force for Christian work Is being established. The change in the School of Religion perhaps marks a new era in the College of Liberal Arts, since the latter is being improved in all departments of work.
NOTICE
All men who were assigned physical examination dates on Octrber 2 must report on September 28 instead. A mistake In the assignment was made and it has become necessary to make the change to the latter date. It ls imperative that all men report.
TRUCE WEEK STOPS SOCIAL ACTIVITIES

During truce week sororities will only be allowed campus conversations with their prospective pledges. The Students Store and the dormitory are considered “off campus.” The old rule of cars parked with wheels touching the curb being a legitimate "rendezvous” for rushees and actives is still in effect.

But it is not the intention of Dales or any of his men that punishment by his groups should degenerate into wide open hazing of freshmen. From now on it is understood that the “button” punishment and others is to be meted out BY THE TROJAN KNIGHTS OR SQUIRES for particular offenses and not by sophomores who desire entertainment. We make this by way of explanation rather than criticism and hope that it will be followed as such.
WOMEN S CLUB
Due to a conflict with the regular monthly meeting of the Women’s Club, the first meeting of the Y. W.
C. A. scheduled for the Women's Residence Hall tomorrow at 4:15, will be held at the same hour In Parlor B of the President’s Suite.
Today we call attention to the beginning of a new page in Dally Trojan history. It has long been our desire to give the Trojan student body a real feature page that would take second place to none on the coast. Lack of finances, largely, and other difficulties has stood in the way until this year. But now we are making the attempt. Miss Baker brings to the page a background of wide newspaper experience, three years on the Trojan and a greaf deal of work outside and we are looking for big things from our “pet,” the new Trojan feature page, designed to give expression to all those campus interests that cannot be handled in the regular news columns.
A special soph meeting was held yesterday at 12:00 In Bovard Auditorium. The purpose of the meeting was to elect a new president to replace Herb Spencer, president-elect, who was forced to resign the office because of having transferred to Dental, and Dave Bryant, prominent man in the class, was elected to succeed him. /
The other man nominated for the office was Jesse Hibbs, a prominent man in the sophomore class, and also one of the star members of last year’s frosh grid squad. He is a candidate for this year’s varsity.
The attendance at the meeting was very small and there was some question as to the legality of holding the elections. Hank Rohr, of the elections committee, was presiding, and ruled that it would be all right to continue the elections.
The ballots were passed and Dave Bryant was elected with a small majority over Hibbs. Bryant stated he would call a special meeting in a few days to organize the class, and would name committees for the coming year.
The meeting was hurriedly called In order to provide a leader for the tussle with the freshmen yesterday afternoon.

Rho Chi, Theta Chapter, national honorary pharmacy fraternity, are offering to the ambitious sophomores with the highest average a silver loving cup. Work hard, sophomores!”
Yesterday we gave the names of persons who have contributed so much to these early editions of the paper. One name we missed, in our hurry, that of Bill Jeffery. Bill was one of the first on the staff and one of the returning members who pitched in an< worked as a cub reporter or anything we wanted him to be while we were getting the paper started.

All pre-medics men and women are to hold a meeting at the “Y” Hut Thursday at 12:30 p. m. to form plans for a pre-medic year, according to Bob Green, president of the pre-medic society.
Green said that all members must be present to find out how the organization, which was formed last year, would continue its work.
In its social functions, the society has proved to be of much help to the participants. Programs, where several doctors and surgeons of prominence have attended, have been presented. It has been assured by the president that such men will again be secured to address on subjects of interest to pre-emids this year.

Eddie Woods, Campus Actor of li*lon ranks among the best in the Note, Now Playing Opposite country, many of the professors being outstanding in their specific fields.
According to the new plans, the School of Divinity is no longer contained as a separate unit, but the departments of the School of Religion, and the work required for both graduate and under-graduate degrees in Divinity is incorporated In the revised schedule. New courses have been added, while others are now being contemplated by those in charge of the department. Perhaps the outstanding addition comes in the number of professors employed.
The School of Religion was one of the oldest and best known departments in the institution 3iace it had its founding in 1876. Various changes were made during the years that followed, and in 188-5 the College of Theology was organized. In 1921 Dr. John F. Fisher was elected Dean of the College. Since that time Dean Fisher has been carrying out the duties as the head of the School of Religion.
Under the general plan of the department, the work is divided up into five separate units. These units cover In various ways the subjects which deal with Christian Ministry, Religious Education, Missions and Social Service, Directors of Vocational Schools, and Religious Writings. While /hese branches cover the field as a whole, other important and interesting courses are offered.
Whatever the effect of the change is, the administration feels that a new force for Christian work Is being established. The change in the School of Religion perhaps marks a new era in the College of Liberal Arts, since the latter is being improved in all departments of work.
NOTICE
All men who were assigned physical examination dates on Octrber 2 must report on September 28 instead. A mistake In the assignment was made and it has become necessary to make the change to the latter date. It ls imperative that all men report.
